    Plant Type: Hostas

    A brand new sport of ‘Blaze of Glory’. Hosta ‘Blazing Hot’ has yellow leaves with a green margin and is a large Hosta that has near white flowers and grows in semi shade and full shade.

    Medium, (18” x 36”).  (M. Zilis, R. Solberg) – (Sport of ‘Blaze of Glory’).

    This one jumps out of the ground on fire. The sturdy, bright yellow leaves are bordered by medium green margins that really show off their colors. It probably would like more sun than I give it here in the nursery as it tends to green up in summer.
